Just would like to know if someone has by now used the 80D for wildlife action and BIF shooting regularly and can share his/her experiences.
Comparing this Camera to the 7D I, it has better AF, better IQ and the same frame rate. While the 7D I was extencively used for wildlife and BIF, most Canon users seem to have moved to the 7D II or a fast FF body instead of the 80D.
 
The 7D2 came out first so thats probably the main reason people went for it over the 80D. Its more of a tossup now that both are available.

Its lovely for ISO 100-200 compared to the 7D2, but over that, theres nothing in it IQ wise, if anything the 7d2 is better, as well as AF, frame rate, buffer etc. So I use the 7D2 for wildlife and the 80D for people and video.

The lack of an AF expansion option, ie the 5 point one is annoying too.
